The "I have a dream" car

AgainTheTime

There is a dark blue car going around Dublin City Centre for the past few days with loudspeakers on the roof rack and Martin Luther King billowing out of them simply repeating "I have a dream..." over and over.

Has anyone got a clue what it is about? The car just passed me on College Green and it even has "I have a dream..." written on the side of the car itself???

Hi,

I spotted this car on Dame st. yesterday. It's just a dark blue car with "I have a dream" printed on the side and the speaker looping over and over. I have no idea what it's advertising/doing

Crash

That car pisses me off MAJORLY. was sitting in the pub having a quiet one and it got stuck in traffic for about 5 minutes just outside. wanted to go over, knock on his window, punch the driver in the face and shout "THATS FOR PLAGARISM" and walk off tbh.

Heh reminds me of the evening galway lost the all ireland (sept. sometime). there we were sitting in the pub. the entertainment for the night ( in this case, a guy with an acoustic ) was just about to start playing. so he asked the barman to turn down the music. the bar man gave him a funny stare and told him he's not got any music playing.

Turns out there's a little gob**** parked outside the pub with his speakers up to the last. And he wasnt too long turning them down then asked "nicely" either.

I think i saw this parked somewhere... speakers werent on though. What a schmuck.

Surely theres laws against this kind of nonsense? Noise pollution etc

I didn't fight in a war to have to put up with the likes of this!

Sleepy

There are noise pollution laws afaik.

Would be great to sue a FF member

If its over 80decibels of noise, i belive, but the time of day affects it too. If you are really bothered, ring the local garda station and ask for advice...

Ah yes the question that gripped the nation for many weeks...

What does Big Ed love...?

I think I still have a Big Ed Loves Mona frisbie lying around somewhere.

Ray D'Arcy was talking bout this car yesterday!! Thread of the day today... small world!!

Idiot.
I'm going to sign him up to everything.
Idiot.

His dream is to become rich or become Taoiseach, preferably both. That's why people join Fianna Fáil.

Or, seeing as they're in coalition with the PD's, maybe his dream is to get rid of all those pesky Africans,
"Look at this you black hooers, yis have rights in the USA thanks to that fella, go there instead"

Or maybe I'm being unfairly kind to suggest that they'd call them something as mild as hooers...hmmm.

Ron DMC

Damn annoying *******. Woke me up yesterday morning when he drove along Pearse St.3 TIMES!!:mad:

Great idea, would be nice if someone would follow him with a loudspeaker blaring something funny (like his e-mail adress).

shanethemofo

Pigman II

Wouldn't waste an egg on him. Now a rock on the other hand .....

arctic lemur

Heard it in work on Townsend Street yesterday, couldn't hear customers on the phone and had awful headache.

wheresthebeef

i'd write to the dept of the environment, and of course to FF and dublin city council.
find out who he is representing by doing this, does FF feel it has a mandate to piss off dublin, and if so who gave them this mandate. maybe dublin city council is making some kind of a point. who knows?

Atlas_IRL

heh i emailed him this thread..

Piste

Where did you get his email?

dahooligan

He drives past my office on harcourt street twice a day.. Luckily for me, I have a broken fax machine, which will be dropped from my 5th floor window onto his I have a dream car.. which hopefully leave him saying I have a bit of a headache! Its all smiles now but if it goes on for much longer I might be arrested and charged with Assault with a deadly fax copier!:mad:

Crap. 1-0 to the wiley aul FF man. Just cos we're talkin bout him doesn't mean we'll vote for him. Bushhead in America does lots of stupid things that raises his profile.. doesn't do him any good - although if he does end up taking over the world I really wouldn't be surprised

I was on the bus into town the other day and that damn car was behind the bus almost the entire way in. Drove me insane and has ruined that speech for me forever. I mean one line over and over and over is really gonna persuade people, I dont think so.

d-arke

someone should get in touch with Dom Jolly, (think thats his name, remember that fella who annoyed everyone with his antics in Trigger Happy Tv on channel 4) and get him to annoy the duck out of this councillor.

anthonymcg

The ticker on that site is sooooooo annoying. Can someone please drive a "stick your dream up your hoop" van around after him?
